Free postage: a
5 Pandora's box
By Don Oakley
New concept in energy
development may bring
C
ige near Muskogee
Rising postal costs are a threat to the free flow of public
opinion, says Sharon Stark, editor of the consumer magazine,
Every body’s Money."
An editorial in the magazine’s Summer 1974 issue urges its
readers to support a bill introduced by Rep Harold
Froehlich R-Wis.) which would provide postage-free mail
service for people writing to their elected representatives in
Washington.
This would give the citizenry the same free postage rights
that senators and congressmen have It would, says the
editorial, open the door to more "input" from the public and
more responsibility on the part of our elected representa-
tives "in this era of distrust in government at all levels ”
The magazine notes that since first-class postage went up
to 10 cents it has received much less mail and wonders if it
could be that its readers have sworn off letters to the editors
as one way of fighting inflation
Sooner or later," says the editorial, ‘'consistent postage
increases are bound to have an adverse effect on freedom of
expression, and hence, our entire political process "
There’s little doubt that free postage would encourage the
sending of a lot more messages to Washington The question
is how many of them would really be necessary and con-
struc ■ ive ′ I Despite inflation, if a person has a beef he thinks is
important or even a compliment - it would seem that he
can still afford a dime for a stamp
Anyway, nothing in this world is "free." To subsidize free
mail to W ashington the Postal Service would probably just
turn around and raise the rates on all other mail.
ENERGY WORLD
By JAMES R CAMPBELL
MUSKOGEE (UPI)— Should
Congress approve a new con-
cept in energy development, a
radically different type of park
might one day rise along the
banks of the Arkansas River
Legislation is now before Con-
gress which would authorize
etization and fabrication facili- asked, “do we have the moral
A ‘comical' prediction
Some will say it’s part of the current “nostalgia kick
Others will attribute it to the search for “relevance." Still
others may suggest it's the result of the discovery in the 1950s
that "Johnny can't read."
W hatever the reasons, the fact is that comic books are the
craze on college campuses these days.
According to College and University Business Reports,
Comics are so popular that more than 50 000 students now-
pay a dollar each to belong to a comic book society with
chapters on more than 100 campuses."
X number of colleges and universities offer noncredit
courses using comic books, including Brown, Tufts, Indiana,
Texas Tech Bowling Green, Auburn, Hunter. Brigham
Young and Wisconsin.
The comic book industry, which was born about 40 years
ago, hit its peak during World War II when sales were esti-
mated at 600 million a year Primarily due to television, cir-
culation decline in the 1950s to an annual rate of less than 200
million Growth resumed in the 1960s, and currently more
than 300 million comic books are sold annually.
some 25 per cent of young adults now read comic books or
magazines particularly at the college level A trend toward
topicality has captured the affections of a sophisticated new
generation of readers, says publisher Stan Lee, who puts out
a number of comic books, including one called “Crazy." a
satirical magazine ribbing the establishment.
Lee insists that besides being entertaining, comic books
are educational Studies have show n their value in teaching
youngsters how to read and develop their skills at com-
prehension Comic books utilize a vocabulary of 20.000
words, he says. The college graduate level is 30,000 words.
Within the next decade," he predicts, “it is my belief
that comic books will come into their own as an educational
medium and be universally recognized as perfectly viable
forms of communication, education and art."
Letters To The Editor
Dear Editor:
What a true and wonderful speech Mr. Shoemake gave on
Memorial Day. We “Broke Faith ’ when Alger Hiss was
beside FDR at Yalta How strong are we in fire-power? Not
much and who was the brains behind that'’ Most of our
leaders are greedy and power crazy How could we even
think of putting trust in Ted Kennedy when he left a girl
under water and went home to bed? What would he do to our
country’ All these government programs are tying the knot
tighter around our neck Yes, we have broke faith not only
with our War Dead but ourselves as well. Just maybe it isn’t
too late.

being placed on fun games which do not require expensive
equipment. Games making use of old automobile tires are
planned and old garden hose will be used to make equipment for
other games.
Many persons have already contributed time and equipment
which the children can use for games, Mrs. Baldwin said
Among these are the do-nation (on a loan basis) of cone markers
by the city for use in marking off playing areas as well as for use
in many different games and contests. One person is collecting
old bowling pins for use in the program.
As was done last year, it is planned to have the Sooner Am-
bulance brought to the area for examination by the children and
so the drivers can explain the equipment and use of the am-
bulances.
Other special programs expected to be staged include a
karate demonstration by George Baldwin when he can be here
from school; a demonstration on soccer by Robert Baldwin; and
demonstrations or instructions in the games of basketball,
football, or other sports when experts or former PHS
stars can be secured.
Many activities
Both indoor and outdoor activities are planned in order to
make the program adaptable to weather conditions and the
particular interests of participants.
The overall plan, Mrs. Baldwin said, is to make the program
educational as well as entertaining and to make it adjustable to
developing conditions so children who are able to attend only
part of the time will still enjoy coming back after a vacation
period or other absence.
